Brings in the ink style of Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo, the samurai-rabbit comic he has written and drawn since 1984 (published over the years by Fantagraphics, Mirage, Dark Horse and IDW). It gives clean brush outlines, solid blacks, rain and speed hatching, dotted screentone on clothing, and the rounded, expressive funny-animal characters of the series, in a feudal Japanese setting. ## Usage - Recommended start of prompt: `UsagiYojimboStyle, black and white ink comic art, monochrome, no color,` then describe the scene. - The training set mixes black and white pages with coloured art, so without the black and white wording the output switches between the two and is less consistent. Black and white is the strongest look. - Animal characters (rabbits, cats, foxes, turtles) work best. Human characters also work. - The LoRA can pull in specific characters from the comics. Describe your own characters to avoid that. Note: fan-made style LoRA. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Stan Sakai or any publisher of Usagi Yojimbo. ## Training details - Base: Krea 2 Raw (int8), tested on Krea 2 Turbo, 8 steps, CFG 1.0, euler/simple - 1000 steps, LoRA rank 32 (alpha 32), learning rate 1e-4, AdamW8bit, 768 px, bf16 - Trainer: musubi-tuner (kohya-ss) - Suggested strength: 1.0 (lower to 0.7-0.8 to blend with other styles)
